Notifications are seeing improvements, with 'Live Activities', where you can create new widgets to follow news, an Uber ride, workouts and more.

Focus is seeing improvements, with it being extended to your lock screen. These can change to the focus that you've set it to, so 'Meeting' could make your lock screen change to a wallpaper and widget that involves that focus.

'Focus Filters' also block out tabs in Safari, accounts in Mail, events in Calendar, and more to bring in more boundaries to your workflow. (Image credit: Apple) Messages (Image credit: Apple)

SharePlay is also coming to the app, so you can play a movie in Disney Plus, and share it with someone in Messages.

Live text is seeing improvements as well, where you can copy and paste text
in video, alongside being able to copy text when translating a video. Wallet (Image credit: TechRadar)
